I liked her concession speech too, but it's not her concession speech I'm referring to. The comment I'm referring to was made later. It sounded bitter.

However, Nenshi is clearly no friend of Higgins. Even as she conceded she had lost the race for Calgary mayor to the business professor, she criticized what she called his negative campaign. “I’m going to call it like I see it and he was incredibly negative,” Higgins told reporters at the Metropolitan Centre. “That worked for some people. It was effective. We’ll all have lots of time to think about what happened.”

That sounds a lot like "waah waah waah, he's a big meanie and I could have won if I went negative too."
But, whatever, it's not a big deal to me. It doesn't upset me. It simply reassures me that I made the right choice and I find it mildly entertaining consider the garbage Hawkesworth was spewing on her behalf. Nobody crapped in my cornflakes this morning!
